 | |  |  | Fort Calgary Historic Park: Fort Calgary Historic Park | |  |  | |  |
This historic attraction is located on the site of Calgary's original settlement. The town was founded in the late 1800s, when the North West Mounted Police (later to become the RCMP) arrived to stop settlers from selling liquor to Native Americans. That first fort gave rise to the metropolis that is Calgary today. The site that it occupied is now a 40-acre park along the river and features a visitors' center, a host of exhibits, videos, trails, and the reconstructed fort itself. Displays track the city's history with artifacts, memorabilia, and interiors. The nearby Deane House, also an historic building, offers weekday lunches, Sunday brunch, and Friday evening dinner theater.
